Spanbutton doesn't delegate properties through event handlers

[howud...@gmail.com]

The name attribute set on a span button doesn't get propogated through the even handler...see this code:

        SpanButton btnLogin = new SpanButton("Test");

        btnLogin.setName("Test");

    System.out.println(btnLogin.getName() + ":" + btnLogin.toString());

        btnLogin.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {

    Object o = evt.getSource();

    System.out.println(o.toString());

}

        });

results in the following output:

Test:SpanButton[x=0 y=0 width=0 height=0, layout = BorderLayout, scrollableX = false, scrollableY = false, components = [Button, TextArea]]

Button[x=12 y=7 width=0 height=687, text = , gap = 2]

Neither the actual button type nor the name label is propagated through the event.

That's a lead component. Look at the JavaDoc for the action event object.

for those who use forums to help find answers, the correct function call to use is event.getActualComponent(), especially when using lead components
